Sony has confirmed its acquisition of Bungie is now complete.
Sony announced it would buy Bungie for $3.6bn back in February. At the time, Sony boss Jim Ryan stated the purchase was “an important step in [Sony’s] strategy to expand the reach of PlayStation to a much wider audience”.
Despite a probe by the FTC that sought to review “the latest example of how aggressive the agency is becoming in reviewing mergers”, the agreement has now formally “closed” and Sony has posted across its social media channels to “officially” welcome Bungie to “the PlayStation family”.
